A touch of 'double standards here.  Why would the Dockers be fuming?  I don't recall any angst when LJ sought a trade from us. 

Not an apt comparison. It would be more like if Mac Andrew was drafted by us, having spent 5 years developing in our academy. And sought a trade in year 4 after finally playing 17 decent games in a role he'd made his own.

    I would imagine they are only impressed with player requests from players leaving other clubs to come to them.

    That is impressive!

    Toby Bedford would be the best comparison but he probably didn't get the same starting 22 opportunity that Henry had.

    Not a top 10 pick though. I don't like Bell at the best of times, but I can def understand why they'd be annoyed about this particular trade request given the time sunk into Henry's development.

    Freeo not happy a guy in LJ’s draft year deciding to leave…

     

    Hmmmmmm. Is there something wrong here?? I can’t remember the MFC expressing themselves other than LJ was a wanted player, and all the best, sayonara after he left.

    Bell is old school and look at the results. 

    We're little fuss and get the job done every time.

    Now Official. Whats to go to the Saints. Whats wrong with playing for Casey.

    Not so sure about Casey, Langdon hasn’t exactly lit the year up and I had hoped for a bit more from Hunter in terms of helping with connection into our forward line. While they are gut runners I wouldn’t say they have elite speed either would love him at Melbourne.

    Smart recruiting and picked up very cheaply by the Saints. 

    Very smart recruiting indeed.

    Add outside speed and skill, something we haven't been able to address the last few years.

    Getting real 'I bought you dinner, how dare you not sleep with me' vibes out of Fremantle on this.

    Must be quite alarming for Freo supporters to see the number of best-22 and developing players who want out right when they were supposed to be on the cusp of contending.

    Side note: Andrew Brayshaw, Restricted Free Agent, end of 2025.

    Revenge is a dish best served cold

    Andrew would be a great get as Viney hits the twilight of his career.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
